Nicky Morgan proposes further reforms to primary assessment

Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has spoken today about reforms to promote educational excellence in schools, including proposed changes to primary school assessment. As well as the ‘baseline tests’ when pupils start in Reception, and new more rigorous national curriculum tests at the age of 11, the government is looking to introduce formal tests for pupils at age 7.
